The Role of Betacyanins in Plant Salt Tolerance [PDF]

, 2021
<p>Soil salinity is a major threat to future food stability. Almost 20% of irrigated land is currently too saline to grow traditional crops. Moreover, rising sea levels, scarcity of fresh water, and more intense and prolonged periods of drought are exacerbating the problem. Saline soils severely reduce yields of most crop plants.

Transcriptional Regulation of the Novel Theacrine Synthase Gene CsTcS2 by the CsTINY–CsWRKY33 Module Underpins Theacrine Biosynthesis in Camellia sinensis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 4823-4843, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Theacrine (1,3,7,9‐tetramethyluric acid) is a purine alkaloid detected in multiple wild and specialised tea germplasms (Camellia sinensis) from South China, including Kucha. However, the molecular mechanisms governing its biosynthesis remain poorly understood. Here, we identify CsTcS2 as a novel theacrine synthase in tea plant.

Stability of encapsulated red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) peel: effects on antioxidant and prebiotic potency

Advances in Food Science, Sustainable Agriculture, and Agroindustrial Engineering
The high consumption of red dragon fruit has led to an increase in red dragon fruit peel waste in the environment, which has potential as a source of natural food coloring and as a prebiotic but is susceptible todegraded.
